He statt d that the lire lad doneava-- t amount of damage.

The fr either intentionally r r turougli cilininal carelessness, and tiio pintles who end it .should he taught a lesson for their special benefit In the future." The Judge thinks the road through Provo canyon should be a comity road. He think it Is a disgrace and an Imposition on the traveling public to be compelled to pay fifty cents for the ptlvllige of Jolting over the rocks, holes and ruts of Provo canyon II thinks the county courts of Utah and Wasatch counties could abate this nuisance (this is not hi language)!! they were so inclined If this can be done by tlie county cniuts. we certainly think it should be att aided to at once. Why can not our comity court appoint a committee next Monday to confer with a committee from Utah county aiuLsoe what can be done in this matter The move would bo hi at Illy eii dorsed by all the people In both counties, unless it be a few directly Interest! d in the profits of the road, and wc cannot see why they should raise any serious objection. 'I lie road has certainly been a toll road long enough to pay for Itself ; if it hasnt, It never will and the soom r the rorpotation get) rid of such property the better. Why should the poor men it is principally poor men w ho patronize this road contribute tptoOor ijslooi) a year to pay annul to stand in the cany on ami recoive four bits from them cavil time they pass by ? If that monty could be expended on the road It would go a long w ay tow ards putting the road in better shape than it Usually is. Not that we are finding any fault with the company, it is, of couiso, a necessary evil that but is it they should have a just to c'oinpel the tiav cling public to pay a man to stand there in the ca.vvon and take their money? Doesn't it rather reflect to the discredit of both Utah ami Wasatch counties that such has been the ease for the last twenty-fiv- e or thirty years? Other reads in these counties are kept up by taxation. The man who pars hi fifty cents for the privilege of going from lleber to Irovo, or from Provo to Heber, pays his portion of the expense of keeping up other roads. For example: The man who travels between lleber and Park city has a good road to travel over and It is kept so by a tax on the people; the man who travels between lleber and Irovo or any otln r of tlie Utah county settlements must help to keep np the Paik city road, and also pay some man to stand In Provo canyon and take four bits front him each trip. The poor fruit peddler from Utah county has to pay half a (lollin' for the privilege of coisAig up here, and, of course, is compelled to chaigo us five or ten cents more on a bushel of peaches or apples, and steal our fence poles, to get vcu. We don't blame him for that, for we are almost Inclined to believe we should do likewise under like circumstances. It onr reasoning be correct, we are almost converted to the opinion that Unpeople of Wasatch county have to cnirv the big, blunt end of this tH business, and that it Is about time something was done to ulieve us of this unnecessary burden. pa-.t- -d W. til i l ., SATURDAY, AUil r i nl MT 31, bimi -- . r Hl.

The art of gleaning knowledge r papers is se art that com from hool, paratlvely few acquire. Too man) it ad a piece and that is the la--t of it v 1th them. If asked what the piece contained, they could not for the life of tnemtcll. A person that know 5 howto glean facts from printed matter can take a book and get more real Information from It in ten minutes than another pi can possibly acquire In two horns The difference is simply this : One lias learned to pronounce words, the other has learned to "Van facts and ideas, the former reads for pastime merely to kill time or for momentary pleasure ; the latter reads for culture to strengthen the judgement, to embellish the mind with a store of inforuiHltoH, and to implore hlo taste. The former Is an automatic mimic machine, the latter, a thinking, Intelligent human being. The experienced and thinking reader can run his eye along page after page ami pick out the points he wishes without reading a sentence. This pownr, of course, require practice, and the majority of readers never think to practice it. Tills practice should be Introduced into our schoolrooms. The power of getting thoughts and Ideas from reading should be cultivated to a greater extent In the schoolroom than is usually the case. Children In school should be taught to read thoughts and ideas Instead of w ords. They should he taught the construction of the language, and how to a laly ze It. The teacher will, we are aware, meet with some opposition In this, but he should do his duty regardless of this opposition. We remember when wo were teaching a district school some ytars since. We spent a week training a class In tbo elementary sounds of the language and the art of acquiring Information by silent reading, and had two pupils read a election each day. Thursday we received the following note : mister my dauter tells me she hnut red fur threa dais I wanto no If this thing Is gonto eoutlnyon. The following Is one out of quite a number of notes received of similar Im- port: t dont want my children to stmhly no gunner If you lent them redoing ril-iand syfering Hints a nuf This, was our ftrst experience In school teaching, that Is, during the llrst few years, and we beeauto very neaily disng couraged.
